The FY26 awards have been made under the Eagle Eye Solutions Group plc Long Term Incentive Plan scheme with an exercise price of 1p per Ordinary Share. The awards have been granted under the current year's Long Term Incentive Plan performance criteria, vesting following completion of the three-year period ending 30 June 2026 subject to revenue and EBITDA performance criteria and the overall underlying performance of the Company. Consistent with previous awards, the number of options which vest will vary depending on the level of achievement between threshold, target and stretch performance levels.
Following the new grant of options and assuming all vesting criteria are met, the fully diluted number of Ordinary Shares would be 33,407,257; of which the total number of Ordinary Shares over which options currently issued and outstanding represent 12.0% of the fully diluted number of Ordinary Shares. This is in accordance with the Company's shareholder approved limit for shares outstanding under the Company's share option schemes at any time of a maximum of 20% of the ordinary share capital of the Company in issue at such time.
